P2P being throttled overnight

Re: P2P being throttled overnight

I'd bought a media box, which I switched my ethernet cable to, and used wireless on my pc.
Picked up another ethernet cable today, to go back to using that.  Will see if it solves what has only occured from using wireless and bittorrent.
This may sound like a silly question, but the router has seemed hotter than normal. Could activating the wireless on it have caused it to overheat?
I have used it before, but never pushing it to line speed constantly.
Cheers

Re: P2P being throttled overnight

Does anyone think what I've said is possible, before I complain to Belkin?
Thanks

Re: P2P being throttled overnight

p2p has been slow for me but only since I switched to Unlimited from BBYW option 3.  I would easily get 150-240kBs after midnight on BBYW, but at the moment on Unlimited after midnight I'm lucky to see 60kBs

Re: P2P being throttled overnight

I don't think anyone's interested Pierre.
It was an issue with Win7 and uTorrent. Was causing occasional disk overloads, which I hadn't noticed. Fixed it by tweaking some settings.

No honestly, on this forum we think it is polite when you solve a problem, to tell other people in case they get the same problem Smiley

Re: P2P being throttled overnight

I don't think polite is quite the right word Peter Wink but it is useful for a person to post the solution to their problem if it hasn't already been done so.
That's what makes these forums such a goldmine of information Smiley

Re: P2P being throttled overnight

Ordinarily I would have automatically done so, but as I was asking a question and making other posts, to which there was no reply, it didn't seem to be of interest.
